Richard Rodriquez needs your help to overcome a banking giant. Rich was the victim of an overzealous manager at US Bank who rigged a credit rating higher than it should have been. That means US Bank is fiddling with credit rating numbers, making them look better than they are. Doesn’t that sound like 2008 all over again? Rodriquez blew the whistle and now needs your help to bring down the corrupt giant. Listen to his story in the video above and decide for yourself.

US authorities have awarded former UBS banker Bradley Birkenfeld a $104 million reward for blowing the whistle on the Swiss bank’s tax fraud, a whistleblowers group said Tuesday.

“This is believed to be the largest reward ever given to an individual whistleblower in the United States and the first major reward issued under the IRS tax whistleblower law,” the National Whistleblowers Center said in a statement.

Birkenfeld earned the reward from the Internal Revenue Service for providing the US government with “insider information on UBS’s illegal offshore banking scheme,” said the Washington-based nonprofit organization.

“Countrywide Financial was one of the subprime lenders at the heart of the financial crisis; its predatory lending practices resulted in disgustingly large payouts for executives while sticking low-income borrowers with explosive mortgages they hadn’t a hope of paying back. The New York Times‘ Gretchen Morgenson called Countrywide, “Exhibit A for the lax and, until recently, highly lucrative lending that has turned a once-hot business ice cold and has touched off a housing crisis of historic proportions.”

Income has been massively redistributed from the 99 to the 1 percent via legislative scam after scam, from tax cuts for the rich to international income redistribution schemes falsely labeled as trade agreements. In The Rigged Game, John Hively exposes how this has all come about starting with a revolutionary, but simple reality, all recessions begin in the financial markets.
